Julia was good host. House has interesting atmosphere and is situaded in the pleasant and quiet place near the lake.

The place was wonderful. It had all the comfort you need. Privat lake cabin with a beatiful wiew. Ott was a great host, really friendly and easy to communicate during our stay. We are really satisfied with our week in this beatiful place and highly recommend! Kenneth & Tiia-Mai

Perfect getaway for me and my wife - great location near Otepää, breathtaking view, good sauna, the design matches our tastes etc. Everything was superb. Anyone who looks for a place near Otepää, there wouldn't be anything else we'd recommend! :)

You'd love to explore Tartu but at the same time enjoy the beauty of nature in your garden, try sauna or interact and have some fun with a great Estonian/Dutch family? Well then this is a place for you!
Read below before booking with us.

The whole house is ours even though it seems too big for a family of four but we do like being active and we have guests over quite often so there's plenty of space for everyone.
What we love about our house:
* spacious bedrooms * two bathrooms so there's barely any endless waiting after someone * sauna where you can be relaxed after busy day. Sometimes we even run out and jump into snow/small pool! If you've never tried that then we definitely recommend it! * back yard where you can sit on the porch and watch the birches swing, or sunbathe, grill, make campfire, listen to birds singing or frogs croaking. Children have a playing ground outside and plenty of room to run around. There's always something interesting for them to discover! *fireplace in the living room, drinking hot chocolate and perhaps reading a book or having a small talk. *children have their own playroom with plenty of toys and games: cooking, drawing, playing a shop, card games, board games... And a piano for little (and big) musicians. *quiet neighbourhood! Our neighbours are very friendly and nice people.
Every bedroom has a door lock so if needed it's possible to lock your door so no one would bother you. This bedroom is perfect for two (queen size bed). If it's needed to accommodate more people or two people separately then we also have another room which is bigger/can accommodate the second person. Just let us know what you need and we'll do out best to make sure you'd feel at home!
Our home is only 15 minute drive from city Tartu. There's a supermarket and shopping center (the biggest in this county) right on the border of the city (8 minute drive, 30 minute cycling) so you don't even have to bother going to the city center to shop, eat or having fun! They have supermarkets, dry goods stores, cafe's, 4D cinema, small adventure park, playing ground for children (you can leave your kids there and go shopping!), ice field, gift shops, flower shops, banks, currency exchange etc.
Access to: bedroom, bathrooms, sauna, laundry room, playroom, living room, kitchen, back yard, the balcony.. We want you to feel at home! We share all the rooms, you only have your own private bedroom which is off limits for us during your stay. Other bedrooms will be still private so we ask you kindly not to enter them. You also get your own keys to the house so you can plan your day however you want.
We or one of us will meet you upon arrival and show you around and how things work. We can also pick you up from the bus station in Tartu, bus stop in our village or airport near Tartu. Just let us know if it's needed and we'll arrange it!
We are here to answer you questions, give you tips on tours, places to go etc. Just come and ask!
Our days vary from week to week but we're usually gone daytime. In the evenings we're mostly at home. Some evenings during the week we might not be back before 9pm.
We enjoy having you here so we don't mind at all having a chat and sharing stories or playing games etc. For us, that's what Airbnb is all about - getting to know people from all over the world and sharing their views with each other, and hopefully learning something from all of that. During weekends we usually have friends over so if you would like you're very welcome to join us! Of course before having any plans we talk things through with you so you wouldn't have to worry about huge parties, noises at night and not getting any sleep.
Our daughters are very friendly and curious so they would probably want to show all their toys, play and talk with you (after getting over their first shy moments). If you would prefer peace and quiet then let us know and we'll make sure they won't be bothering you :)
Also, we have a cat that loves people so if you are not a cat person it's good to keep your bedroom closed. The puppy would surely want to play with you as she loves attention. We will introduce the pets for you as well as they are part of our family :)

We live in a quiet neighbourhood which used to be only a summerhouse area but now people have settled in and live here throughout the year. It's very safe and all the people around here are very friendly and warm. You can see frogs, foxes, rabbits and many more animals running around here from time to time.
Our home is about 15 minutes from Tartu by car. If you like cycling then we also have two adult bikes that you can use. By bikes it takes about 30 minutes (6km) to town. 6,5km from home,on the border of Tartu, we have the biggest shopping centre with lots of things to do. It's also possible to use public transport but buses to/from Tartu.
If you like walking, you can also try that! I've done it several times, but it does take you about one and half hours so you need to be prepared with snacks and drinks. There's sidewalks and bicycle lanes to/from Tartu so you wouldn't have to walk/cycle on the road.
I can give recommendations where to rent a car from, which buses go to town etc.
We would like to point out that we have two young children (plus the pets) so we cannot guarantee you an absolute silent place. For reclusive people this house might not be perfect but we do respect each person's personalities so it's mostly up to you if you think you could "handle" us :)

This was my first time in Estonia and choosing Silja & Bas's home was a perfect choice. There's no point to describe all the facilities (although spacious room with a huge, comfortable bed is worth mentioning:)), because they're as presented in the description - very good. But you can find it in many places. What was special? The real home atmosphere. As hosts Silja and Bas (plus their fantastic daughters, dog & cat) do more than enough to make you feel like a part of the family. We spent a lot of time talking and drinking, what gave me a great opportunity to discover more about Estonia and its culture. The house is located in a very quiet place, ca. 15 minutes from Tartu. It's an advantage if you want to avoid city atmosphere and hear birds singing in the morning. Coming by car is advisable, however, unless you like long-distance walking :) Silja, Bas & Co. - thank you once again for hosting me at your place. I hope this was not the last time we met!

TomaszAugust 2016

Silja was a kind and professional hostess. She responded quickly and made us all feel welcome and well cared for. I was traveling with our my husband, we slept upstairs. The house is in a peaceful neighborhood. Nice area, . We came by car. Everything was clean and as in the pictures. On the other hand, it is a good opportunity for guest of the city not only to see the tourist spots, but also to relax in such a calm place when coming back in the evening. Only good memories. So I would definitely recommend this house both for 1-2 nights and for a much longer stay. And once again, thank you, dear Silja and Bas :) --------------- Silja добрая и отзывчивая хозяйка. Она быстро откликнулась и сделала все, чтобы мы чувствовали себя отлично в их доме. Я приехала с моим мужем, мы спали в спальне наверху.Дом находится в тихом районе. Мы пришлибыли на автомобиле. Все было чисто и как в изображениях. С другой стороны, это хорошая возможность для гостей города не только увидеть туристические места, но и отдохнуть в таком спокойной месте, когда возвращаетесь в вечернее время. Этот отдых оставил только хорошие воспоминания. Так что я определенно рекомендую этот вариант и в течение 1-2 суток или в течение более длительного пребывания. И еще раз благодарю вас, дорогие Silja и Bas :)

ДарьяApril 2015

I spent three nights with my 6 and 10 year old daughters at Sijla's place and we loved it there because the family was very friendly and my daughters got quickly friends with their daughters. My kids also loved the cat and a small puppy they had. I had nice chats with Silja and her spouse during our stay.

PiaJune 2016

We loved our time with Silja and family. They are great hosts, and are very sociable - and they picked us up and returned us to the bus station at the end of our visit. Everything in the Airbnb description is accurate; it is about 10km from Tartu, and is in a beautiful and quiet area.

KennethJuly 2016

We enjoyed our stay at Külitse very much. If you are travelling by car, it is very convenient, as there are no parking issues, and city centre is quite close (~12 min drive). The breakfast was great, especially the porridge :), and the hosts have been very friendly and helpful. We received detailed instructions and city guides by e-mail in advance. If you are planning to visit Tartu/Külitse in winter, make sure to take warm cloth with you, as it might be cold in the countryside. And we confirm this place is very quiet - no noises around, no cars, the best sleep experience :)

EugeneApril 2015

I am at the moment who spent longer as no one in this beautiful house with this amazing family. It was 2 moths. Every moment was lovely for me with my 'new family' during my secondment. Now they have experience with short time guest and with long one (that's me :) ). You could enjoy time there and with them. Would be fun! :) P.S. Mostly with the best wishes, hugs and kisses to girls!

IlidaMarch 2016

This was a wonderful family welcome to the suburbs of Tartu. The family made me feel like a family member returning from an overseas trip. The place was not only as described, but spacious with Silja and Bass making sure you feel comfortable as a guest in their home.

JosephNovember 2015

It was pleasure to stay at Silja&Bas place. The house is around 15min car drive from Tartu in a small village. The room was clean and comfortable. Silja and Bas did everything to ensure that I feel like at home.

Nice place, quite surrounding. But it's not whole house for staying, it's only second floor, big enough. But without dinner place or any table for having meal. Also was strange to see some personal belongings of owners. Anyway was good enough for that price.

IvanAugust 2016

We had absolutely wonderfull two days in this house, we felt very welcomed and all the atmosphere was warm and friendly. The property has all amenities traveler would need, private bathroom, WC, dining area and even small kitchen. The only downfall was quite small beds, would not call them double. But we had mattresses with us, so it was not a problem after all.

The sauna house has a private terrace that overlooks the lake and is a great place to relax and watch the sunset.

The house is located in a large garden next to the main family home.
The house doesn't have kitchen, however there is an outside grilling area with roof, where you can use the barbecue and wooden heated stove. There is fridge, kettle, microwave, pots, pans and basic utensils such as cups, plates, knives, forks and so on. Please bring your own charcoal.
For extra money the family would be happy to include breakfast in the booking.

Anneli and her parents were kind and generous hosts. We arrived late to a hot sauna and a warm welcome. We travelled to Estonia to rediscover our roots, and Anneli's parents not only wanted to hear all about where our ancestors were from, but made phone calls on our behalf to help us with our research! The entire place feels loved and cared for, can't recommend highly enough!

EmilyAugust 2016

Although we never met Anneli - only her parents which were very nice! - we had a very great stay there as expected. It was little a pitty we couldn't really swim in the lake since there's too much plants in the water. However, having your feet in there you'll enjoy a unique and very strange but pleasent fish spa (the pick your feet). The garden is very beautiful and the house itself very cozy and great to stay. A place to wash the dishes would be great - we did it in the shower which wasn't really the way you like to do it. And some dishwater soap would be great too. All in all we would come back. Thank you.

Great place for relaxing! Very easy-going and flexible host! We booked the sauna just 4hrs before arrival, and everything went smooth and nice. Fast response and sauna was warm when we arrived, all we needed! It was cold, windy and rainy day but it didn't matter since the Sauna was very good, there was fresh water in the small lake and good amenities. BBQ is available also when the weather is bad and it's protected from the wind. In the morning the home-made breakfast from fresh ingredients is totally worth the price! Thanks for a pleasant stay! :) -Toby and guys

We felt very welcomed! They were nicely flexible with the arrival time. The place and surroundigs were very beautiful. Garden well kept and pond with its fish refreshing after sauna. It was a quiet countryside with a good access to main road. We are very thankful for the stay and looking forward in visiting you again!

It was very good place for our weekends. We were sport team. Place very good and cozy.

It's a small cute town with many cafeterias. Everything is on the walking distance.
From the centre you can go for bicycling or skiing. No big traffic.
The town central bus station, food store, pizza and ambulance, City Hall are across the street. 3 cafeterias are around 70meters. Nightclub is also in 50meters.
Our apartment is really in the centre for everything :). But as the walls are think, the apartment is still quiet.
Küte: õhksoojuspump, elektriradiaatorid, põrandaküte. Soovi korral puuküttega pliit ja ahi. Aga täiesti piisab ka elektriseadmetega kütmisest.
To make the fire (under stove), be sure that you know how.
The heating is automatic with the air heating system + electric radiators.

Apartment is newly and tastefully renovated with a touch of classic vintage. Great big rooms with high ceilings and lovely wooden floors. It makes a cosy base for anyone visiting the beautiful Otepää. Great for just enjoying the many romantic cafes in the town and relaxing vacation in Pühajärve beach. Ilona was very friendly and nice. Thank you Ilona!

We really enjoyed our stay in the house and had a wonderful Christmas there. The place is very secluded and is not far from Otepaa so it is convenient to travel to the ski slopes. In addition there are some nice forest trails nearby, which can be worth visiting too. The only drawbacks worth mentioning is that it was very hard to heat up the sauna even up to +70 degrees. Liis is a very positive and attentive host.

Nice little flat near the winter capital, surrounded by the forest. Located on the second floor of a family house, entirely private.

The space is basically a one-bedroom flat on the second floor of a larger family house. There's a big living area with armchairs, a TV+DVD player and music system. Everything's been recently renovated - in fact, it's so recent the kitchen hasn't been fitted yet, but I'll provide you with tea/coffee making facilities and some fridge space downstairs if needed.
There's also a small bathroom with fresh towels and all necessary toiletries.
The bedroom is small but cosy, with two single beds, a chest of drawers for your stuff and a large full-length mirror.
You'll have access to:
Living area with:
TV
DVD player with my small collection of films
Music system
Coffee/tea making facilities
Bathroom - with toiletries and towels
Bedroom
Fridge in the downstairs hallway (on request)
The downstairs living area is occupied by the owner of the house. Unfortunately she doesn't speak English, but in case of any problems, I'm just a call away.
I might not always be present at the place, but I'll do my best to meet you on your arrival and provide all the necessary information for a convenient stay. If I'm available, I'd be glad to show you around or recommend the best spots for sightseeing or eating.

If you're looking for a quiet country getaway, this is the place. There are no immediate neighbours and the house is surrounded by the forest. It's near enough to the town so if you need anything, it's just a short drive away.
You can get to the town once a day by bus, at other times a taxi is the easiest way. Of course, during the summer, a nice hour-long walk in the fresh country air is also an option.

Diana gave us a warm welcome, and though she wasn't at the flat, I am sure she would have helped quickly if any problems would have come up. The place itself is beautifully renovated and only lacking a kitchen (at the moment). We were very happy with having stayed in Otepää for a few days.

A cosy house in South-Estonia, in the Otepää Nature Park. Very close to Lake Pühajärv, biking tracks and nature trails. Also, quite close to town of Otepää, Pühajärve Spa and several restaurants.

I will be able to assist you on the phone +372 506 5081.
Or if you do not reach me, please call to my father + 372 5347 9747.

It is a really good neighbourhood for sports and holidays. During summer time you can hike around the lake on a trail or rollerblade/cycle to Otepää or Kääriku. The beach of Lake and Pühajärv and small childrens playground is about 300 m from the house. Also, Pühajärve SPA is about 400 m from the house and has a swimming pool with spectacular view to the lake. It is possible to rent bikes from there, play bowling, go to the fitness center or take massage or other spa treatments, etc.
At Otepää, there is a ski stadium and tracks as well as an adventure park where you can climb the trees and have a long slide over a valley.
Some good restaurants are also close by - Pühajärve restaurant, Pühajärve SPA restaurant or pub, Nuustaku pubi etc.
A tiny grocery shop called Tamme Äri is about 40 meters from the house managed by our neighbours. You can get the basics from there but bigger supermarkets are at Otepää town about 2,5 km from the house.
If you have any further questions about the neighbourhood, please call me. Enjoy your stay1 :)
There are two parking spaces in front of the house.
A bus stop is close by.

Host and the house exeeded our expectations. 10 days spent in the beginning of May were perfect! Before we stayed at SPA hotel 500 meters from the house. But we much preferred this house - we felt at home but being away. House has its charm. Lots of space for 4 adults and more. Eat inside the house or on veranda or outside. Play on the grass. The house has all you need. Katre and her mother Anu are so nice and easy to communicate. They made everything go smoothly. In addition to the great hostesess and the house you will have access to the wonderful lake, beach and kids' play gounds just 400 meters away from the house. Rent a boat there. Hotel with the pool (kids room is free for everyone, not only for hotel residents) is vey close too - 500 meters. Rent a bike there. Many other things to do there. Convenient store is one house away from the house. Supermarket is reachable by bike or car. Two great restorants nearby. I will stop here as I do not want you, reader and potencial resident of this house, to compete with me when booking this place next time-) My famly is dafinitely coming back to this house.

A cozy log house with a large sauna, just 4 km from Otepää. Come and relax with family or friends in beautiful nature pond! The house has water, a toilet, a wood-fired sauna, a spacious terrace, kitchen. The price includes bed linen, towels.

Place itself is very nice, huge territory and not so close to the road however you can hear the cars passing. Owners are very kind and outgoing people who were kind to meet us and bring to the place, as it was impossible to find on our own. But without a car it would be very challanging to get there. House looks almost the same as on the pic - big and romantic, in an old farm style. From first look same is inside, but later you will find out: fridge is from 1978, hardly working and all in corrosion inside, house is full of owners things, such as clothes, shoes, tooth brushes - half hidden, half in front of your nose. All this old things make house full with dust. You ve better take own pillows with you as owner's are 30x30. But the worst thing was the water - no showed possible - water pressure from sink was 1cm, shower u can take only part by part. Pound in front of the house is small and dirty - sure not for swimming. No conditions for bathing/ shaving for man, no comfortable sleeping - too tight. Terrible smell from canalisation came on the second day. If you are coming to spend time outside - grilling and being surrounded by nature - its a great place, but if you need clean and comfortable place - look for smth else. Such a place could be accepted for max 25 euros per night and for non allergic people.

The cabin was fantastic and the sauna was a real treat. Very pleasant experience in Otepää thanks to Merilin!

Very good, can absolutely recommend this location if you are looking for an extraordinary place to stay. It's in the middle of nowhere surrounded by nature and a lake opposite the house. Although we were little late on arrival everything worked out perfectly thanks to Merilin. Would go there again for sure, very ice experience.
